First of all, I wanna wish u all Merry Christmas! haha, i noe veli late edi la.. went for a 10-day journey around UK for Christmas la.. no time for blogging.. T.T from 18th to 23rd I went to Birmingham, 24th till 26th I stayed at my sis' bf hometown, Worthing(South Coast). For the last 2 day, I went to London for shopping of course! ^^

Before I went for Birmingham, which is 16th, I bought a cooking book for my sis as Christmas present ler! quite expensive.. T.T The streets n everywhere were decorated nicely to welcome Christmas!

Birmingham

At Birmingham there ler I din do much things la.. just playing poker n dota all day long lo.. :p celebrated Han Yang's Birthday on 22nd oso.. I gave him a bottle of beer (Magners) as his present.. n he bought us Carling!

I managed to take some pictures of the University of Birmingham. Took pictures of the historical building n the famous clock tower! The streets at Birmingham were oso well decorated.

The University of Birmingham.. Nice & big campus!

I was on a double decker. Foggy Christmas... ^^

I was late for the train to London on 23rd morning! I was overslept that morning coz playing until too crazy edi the nite b4.. T.T sud have known that... sudn't buy a 8.30am punya train ticket.. then I had to waste another ₤23 for an instant ticket. T.T wasn't my lucky day...

Worthing

This was the place I spent all my Christmas at. I had a great time there as it was my 1st time experiencing a traditional English Christmas! Worthing is at the very south of UK. Country side, just walk about 10 minutes u could c the beach edi! It is my sis's bf hometown.. All his family member treated me so good. Though a bit bored, coz I m the onli new person among them, nothing much to chat.. T.T but I got a few presents during Christmas day from them oso! haha.. they got a puppy oso, veli cute la.. haha, now I want to have 1. ^^

I tot the big dinner was at the Christmas eve, but instead on Christmas that day. We had our big Christmas dinner at 2pm, which was very early to call 'dinner'. About twelve people were there for the party, n every1 gave n received presents. Every1 there seemed so happy n excited when they unwrapped the presents n got what they wanted.. nice to c that... wat a nice culture.. ^^ Definitely the best Christmas I ever had!

Itz Christmas! Every1 in the house was busy preparing the dinner, drinking n chatting

The Christmas puddings my sis's bf, Rob made. Looked very nice n delicious

After staying there for 3 days, I left for london on 27th... Appreciate very much the presents they gave me n the service had been great! Made me looking forward to the next Christmas.. ^^

London

I was there onli for 2 days.. T.T din manage to go places i sud have gone such as wax museum & china town.. too bad.. have to postponed it until easter break lo.. anyway, I did manage to shop around London during Christmas, though i din buy much.. wat a shame..

I used underground tube to travel around London. It was just 4.90pound to travel all the places wif train & bus for the whole day. For the 2 days in London, I onli managed to go to 3 places: Oxford Street, Harrods & Arsenal's Emirates Stadium.

For the shopping at Oxford Streets, one of the most popular shooping area for Christmas, Ah Keok brought me to some shops to look around.. din buy anything coz i was very tired edi juz arrived at London..

Busy busy Oxford Street

For the 2 days at London, I stayed at Qi Ting's accommodation.. He is a Imperial College student lo.. rich fella.. haha! I was wondering y there were lotz of museums around Imperial.. even the old palace was nearby.. some the buildings of Imperial were veli old edi ler.. onli the few main buildings were new.. @@ Qi ting was the 1 brought me to the famous Harrods n treated me the popular donut around, KrispyKreme Doughnut. ^^ thks man! i will definitely come down to London again soon.
